DETROIT, USA — Customs and Border Protection’s (CBP) office of field operations intercepted more than a ton of marijuana at the Fort Street Cargo Facility, May 11.

The illicit cargo was seized along with the trailer.

“This seizure underscores CBP’s long-standing commitment to the border security mission,” said Port Director Devin Chamberlain. “The men and women of CBP continue to work diligently to keep our Nation and our communities safe.”
